Villa Ceselle: A Different Side of Capri
A charming and intimate hotel in the center of Anacapri with a restaurant immersed in the island's peaceful coastal countryside.
This villa in Anacapri became the favorite haven of intellectuals and artists in the 20th century, who were often found conversing on the sun drenched terraces or in its fragrant gardens. Today, Villa Ceselle is a gorgeous island boutique hotel.
Tucked inside a garden in the most peaceful part of the Isle of Capri, Villa Ceselle is secluded from mass tourism but near the historical centre of Anacapri.
At Villa Ceselle in Anacapri, you can bask in the sun next to the hot tub or relax in the shade of the garden pergola. Want to take a dip in a pool with a view?

Swimming pool and restaurant Da Gelsomina
The same family which runs Villa Ceselle is the owner of Da Gelsomina, a restaurant with a swimming pool in the countryside of Anacapri at the foot of Monte Solaro, in the district known as "La Migliera" just steps from the most spectacular scenic overlook on the island.
This "insider" spot is a must for guests wanting to sample Capri's authentic traditional cuisine, with the added bonus of a swimming pool overlooking the Mediterranean and the island of Ischia. Guest of Villa Ceselle can take advantage of a 20% discount to access the pool (please book via the reception desk a day in advance; access depends on availability).
You can walk to Da Gelsomina along one of Capri's most scenic routes.
The center of Anacapri, the heart of your holiday
Villa Ceselle is located in a particularly quiet area of Anacapri, close to the center and yet far from the main roads.
All the advantages of staying in the center of town, but with the silence and peace of the countryside. Anacapri's main square, the Church of San Michele, Alex Munthe's museum house and the chairlift to Monte Solaro are within a 10 minute walk away.
Within just a 3 minute walk, you can reach the bus stop where buses depart for the center of Capri, the Blue Grotto and the lighthouse, where you'll find the only bathing establishment on the whole island from where you can admire the sunset.
Both the lighthouse and the Blue Grotto can also be reached on foot along a scenic half hour walk.
"Villa Ceselle enjoys a great location: really close to Anacapri and the bus stop from where to catch buses Capri and, at the same time, immersed in the peace and quiet."
"We chose Villa Ceselle for a romantic week-end on the island of love and that is exactly what we had! The hotel is wonderfully peaceful and attention to detail is evident throughout. Da Gelsomina was excellent, definitely the best restaurant on the island!"
"We expected the hotel to be charming and peaceful. What really surprised us was the range of services offered: the pool, where guests can swim for free, is really beautiful and an excellent option on summer days when the beaches are crowded."
